The Harmony Game

Legendary choral conductor Robert Shaw, in his final years, revisits his most ambitious project: recording Handel's Messiah. The camera follows him into the studio, where the maestro, battling age and fatigue, relentlessly coaxes musicians and singers toward that elusive perfection he calls the 'harmony game'. The film captures not just technique, but the very philosophy of creation, transforming the rehearsal process into a riveting journey into the heart of a monumental piece of music.
